My recycling wasn't picked up today although it is on the schedule to be and all of my neighbors had theirs removed. No notes were left with it, it was sorted, etc.

On the myBloomington City Services tool my address of 633 Bayberry Ct W both the Trash Day and Recycle Week is noted as “Not Available” and I never receive a Trash and Recycling Pickup Schedule magnet. Is there something wrong with my address listing in the database? Please update my address and send a magnet. Thank you.
Where and when can I take an old large TV for recycling?
The Solid Waste District hours are terrible. I was just turned away at 5:34pm as were a bunch of others (cars lined up behind me trying to leave the lot, so they expected it to be open too). If the hours were friendly to the people trying to recycle they would be open MORE on the weekends, not less. And they would be open MORE after 5pm, not open during 9-5. Unless you're trying to pick up recycling primarily from servers and bartenders, these hours do not make sense.
When trash and recycling is picked up on my street (S. Washington), sanitation employees throw the empty cans and bins back down, which is both very loud early in the morning and had resulted in damage to my trash cans and bins. Monday mornings, the sidewalks of S. Washington are strewn with the cans and bins that have been tossed (rather than set) back on the sidewalk.
The City of Bloomington 2014 Trash Collection fridge magnet indicates that there would be yard waste collection every other Monday March-December. It gives December 29 as a recycle and yard waste collection date. I was wondering why our yard waste was not picked up today, nor were the 10 bags with leaves at 2020 E Second.

We live at 806 W. 4th St., in Bloomington. Today, Tuesday, July 10 was our normal trash pick-up day, and also the day for yard waste pickup, according to Bloomington Sanitation's "yard waste collection schedule." We have two 35 gallon bins filled with yard waste waiting at the curb in front of our house. They are properly packaged, and under the 40 pound limit. While our garbage and recycle bins were collected, these yard waste bins were ignored, (although they have been collected on past dates) No note was left by the Sanitation Dept. workers. We appreciate this service, and don't mind the collection fee, but we were missed today.
My garbage and recycling was just dumped into the same truck. I live on Spicewood Lane and saw this at 10:25 Aug. 1 Is my recycling being reycycled?
Just a question: I can't find a definition of "yard waste" on the site. Is it strictly grass clippings and leaves and other yard waste or can I include other compostable items from the kitchen - banana peels, apple cores, etc? thanks,
